Introducing pleezer: a Deezer Connect player

[Tim Curtis]

There are only two reasons that I can think of why this would be disabled by default:

1. Let the user choose whether he/she wants to spend the RAM on it. Some RPi's may have little RAM onboard, or have software that requires a lot; this is the safe default.

2. Maybe during the boot process some things are initially written to disk-based /tmp before the tmpfs service starts.

I don't know, could be interesting to think about changing the default for moOde? Or make it a system setting? After all, moOde itself takes very little RAM, and most RPi's have plenty. So it would be a safe thing to do in 99.9% of cases.

It could be a setting. The systemd unit specifies size=50% (there is actually a bug in that option) It specifies 50%% but the extra % sign doesn't seem to cause any issues.

Code:

[Mount]
What=tmpfs
Where=/tmp
Type=tmpfs
Options=mode=1777,strictatime,nosuid,nodev,size=50%%,nr_inodes=1m

I'll run it on one of my systems for few days and see what happens.

Currently utilization is really low

Code:

pi@moode9:~ $ df -h /tmp
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
tmpfs           2.0G   32K  2.0G   1% /tmp
